A Tough Customer.

About 6 o'clock last evening telephone
message was received at the station-house,
stating that there was trouble at the West
ern Hotel. Officers Able and Franks
fastened there, and found stout-built
young man, fighting drunk, intimating his
intention to clean OUT the establish
ment. He was conveyed to the station
house, and during tussel with him there
he got officer Able's left thumb in his
mouth and bit it to the bone near the Sec
ond joint. The officers administered such
a choking that he was persuaded to release
the thumb, and he was then ironed and put
in cell. Some hours later he stated that his
name was James Leonard, and that he was
discharged from the Folsom Prison on
Tuesday, having been sent TO that instiiu-
ton from San Bernardino county. 1t is
not doubted that he is an ex-convict, but
the list of discharges from the prison does
not include the name he gave, though two
prisoners from San Bernardino county
were discharged few days ago A charge
of mayhem has been entered against him.
Officer Able is quite unfortunate as regards
bites. 4 few weeks ago, while he was
making an arrest, be was severely bitten
by dog from the effects of which he has
scarcely recovered.

Professor Bartholomew Equine Para
dox, introducing twenty marvelously edu-
Gated horses, will be the attraction at the
Clunie next week, commencing Monday
evening, and including matinees on We'd

formances given at the California Theater.

weeks recently, and press and public were
unanimous in praise of the entertainment.
The Call said of the four-legged perform
ers: Horses should command more re-
spect in the future, and the man who laws
his hand upon one of them, save in the
way of kindness, ought promptly to be
the subject of Secretary Hunters attentions.
Bartholomew will tell you that be has
no favorites in this band of bid
dable equines. He takes particular care
not to excite jealousy among them but
if emergency arose, from fire or otherwise
he would exert himself TO save two or three
which, more than toe others, have, by their
intelligence, inspired him with a strong
liking. 1t is interesting to observe how
earnest most of these dumb beasts are in

THE STATE FAIR.
A Bright Outlook for the Approaching
Exhibition-AppIication for Space,

| ~ OutioOk IOE In6 ADDrOaChlnS
neutrality-suspicious. for Space.
| In addition to the counties that have al
ready been announced to have made ar
engagements for exhibiting at the State Fair,
negotiations are now in progress for ex-
| hioits from Shasta, Butte, Colusa, Yuba,
Suffer, Placer, Nevada, San joaquin, Kern,
Fresno, Yolo and Napa. The fact that
these exhibits are to be forwarded by the
State Society to the great St. Louis fair,
provided enough counties join to make it
| creditable to the State, is a sufficient in
ducement to have every county repre-
sented, and they should be. To place such
an exhibit as this joint exposition of Cali
| fornia products will be on exhibition in
the heart of the great Mississippi valley,
will do more to advertise our resources
throughout the entire East, and turn to us
| the heads of those we wish to have come
among us, than can be accomplished in
| any other manner.
The outlook for large exhibits by whole
sale merchants and manufacturers of San
Francisco and Sacramento was never bet
ter. These people are beginning to recog-
nize more fully the fact that an exhibition
at the State Fair brings to the notice of the
people of the interior the goods and me-
chanical products for which they are the
principal purchasers to better advantage
than can be done elsewhere. The unex-
celled exhibits of live stock and agricult-
ural products made here each year attract
very large attendance of the well-to-do
and actual consumers from all parts of
the State. This fact in itself makes the
State Fair one of the very best mediums of
practical advertising that can be availed of
by those who desire to find ready market
for the agricultural and mechanical pro-
ducts of the State.
Applications for space have already been
received from manufacturers and dealers,
both of San Francisco and Sacramento,
who intend to make displays, the actual
cost of arranging which will be from $500
to 81 900.
1t is understood that the people of Fresno
intend to make, as part of their county
exhibit, the grandest display of banner
raisins" ever seen in the United States.
and to more than astonish the people of
the Eastern and Middle States when their
vine products are transferred to the metrop-
oils of the Mississippi valley.
novel and exceedingly attractive feat
ure of the State Fair will be the attend
ance of the Veteran Firemen's Association
of New York. which will arrive here ON
Wednesday, September 18th, and remain
the 14th and 10Th. On the evening of the
18th it is proposed that the celebrated
Seventh Regiment (Coppa's) Band, of 60
pieces, in conjunction with Miss Hortense
Pierse, prlma donna soprano. will give
grand military band concert at the Pa
vilion, whose concerts, it is stated by East
ern critics, are superior to those given
by Gilmore.
Thus it will be seen that the prospects
for the coming exhibition are most excel
lent, and promises to attract an unusually
large attendance.

He Has Gone From our Gaze,

Just before the Fourth of July Paddy
Ryan blossomed out at the corner of Sixth
and streets, with hourishing placards, as
dealer in liquid refreshments and sail
ing" upon his fame as shoulder hitter
and nose-smasher to anticipated seas of
plenty from his bar dispensations, and
meantime himself to be regarded as much
of q - lion in the @ society of the Cap
ital But Paddy did not choose wisely.
The fact that man is pugilist as well as
a saloon-keeper does not add to him as a
citizen, nor make his beverages more palat-
able nor salable in Sacramento. A plain,
able-bodied saloon keeper answers all prac-
teal purposes for the thirsty here. And so
Paddy soon found, TO his eternal disgust,
and for want of due appreciation, and 10
resent the public indifference to his
standing on the manly art" as well
as being able to sling beer and forty-rod
vigor of life, he has, appropriately, and
with most acceptable grace, pulled up
stakes, and, having wiped the Jstreet dust
from his brogans with his best bandana,
FLED the city. The following. found upon
the door of the pugilist's late quarters yes
terday, are supposed to be the words of the
departed:
Farewell to Sacramento,
We bid you all a1ieu;
We may immigrate to Ill., perhaps.
But never come back TO you.
Some one, loyal to Sacramento and not
in harmony with Paddy's poetical effusion,
last evening posted the following on the
door, underneath the above farewell:
Good-by, Paddy Ryan,
You have left US, be il true;
Sacramento is too good place,
For such a man as you.
